This is the demon for every artist. Trying to impress your parents. It’s only natural that you’d want their approval & for them to be proud.

Yeah, just throw that in the garbage & stay hard!!! Impress yourself - excite yourself!!!

You’ll roll around on the beach, get drunk with friends, hit career milestone by milestone, change the world for the better, love yourself, love everyone around you!

It doesn’t matter what people are impressed - stick with the ones who are SO EXCITED about the things you are doing - so you all can be proud of each other… they’ll come. Or maybe you’ll have that ONE friend or lover to share thoughts & ideas with, & it’ll be like your little secret surprise together… where you build the world you want to live in together.
